Nautilus America's 250th Edition GTX - Liberty Flat

Description

Created to commemorate America's 250th anniversary, this limited-edition Red, White & Blue GTX is a limited production honoring 250 years of American independence and American manufacturing. The GTX is the absolute ceiling of what Nautilus builds. Five independent braking surfaces working simultaneously through the Pentadrag system, distributing heat and friction load across the drag to prevent the fade that ends fights on inferior reels. 25-plus pounds of maximum drag pressure, two-turn adjustment range, fully sealed for extreme duty saltwater conditions, and a narrow Giga spool carrying 500 yards of 60-pound braid. This reel was built for fish that do not play fair -- tarpon, GT, permit, and anything else in open water that runs hard, runs long, and tests everything between you and the backing knot. The GTX is not a casual recommendation. It surfaces when the conditions require it and nothing else will do. This America's 250 Edition is built for anglers who demand the very best—and appreciate owning a reel as rare as the moments it's made for.

Features

• Pentadrag Braking System. Five braking surfaces. Three cork and carbon fiber, two floating carbon fiber, topped with a Kevlar-carbon fiber hybrid precision plate for even pressure across the entire drag surface. Fully sealed.
• 25+ Pounds of Drag. Engineered beyond IGFA regulations. Built to stop the fastest, strongest fish on the planet.
• GripTorq Drag Knob. Proprietary four-axis machined knob. Zero to max in 1 1/4 turns. More grip, less weight, more control than any knob in the category.
• Giga Arbor Spool. Maximum line pickup, grooved for faster drying and corrosion prevention.
• 500 Yards of 60 lb Braid Capacity. Narrow spool optimized for strength and control under extreme load.
• Fully Sealed, Extreme-Duty Construction. Built for offshore, bluewater, and destination fishing where gear failure is not an option.
• Easy RH to LH Conversion.
• Machined in Miami. Built to last.

The Pentadrag is the most capable drag system Nautilus has ever built. Five independent braking surfaces work simultaneously to distribute heat and friction load across the system, preventing the fade and degradation that ends fights on inferior reels. Maximum drag pressure exceeds 25 pounds with a two-turn adjustment range that gives you precise control from light startup pressure to full-stop power. The system is fully sealed for extreme saltwater conditions and engineered to perform identically on the first run and the fiftieth.
